A smile is the first invitation to everything.
It’s the first step to world peace.
Smile more.

When he saw his love for the first time he knew.
Instantly.
Deep in you it’s rooted. This love.
Long before meeting.
The one has already arrived in the mind
while the eyes are still blind ,
the heart still searching.
This loved one stays with you forever.
You will do anything ,
Wait till end of days
travel through time
cross timelines
just to meet, to live and love.
Forever and ever.
True love is written in the stars.
It’s meant to be like in a fairytale.
I know I’m dreaming but that’s the way it should be.
Don’t wake me up,
let me dream my dream of dreams and meet my love.
Over and over.

Love, like a  misplaced flower on a snow mountain
like a comet  traveling through time.



Shell ✨🐚

Olive tree standing tall on mountains top high.
Branches moving graciously
in the wind.
Little green leaves shimmering like emerald greens under the sun.
Then came a storm out of nowhere
everywhere flooded
Like Noah’s day.
Born was a sea above the land.
Olive tree hit rock bottom.
Still standing tall.
Branches still graciously moving
on the beat of turbulent waves.
Emerald green leaves now with silvery shine.

The branches of an olive tree are strong
Always moving, bending.
Resilient.
Never breaking.

Be like an olive tree
on the top of the mountain
or under the sea.


Shell✨🐚

Birth of spring in distance.
Slowly awakening.
Scent of zesty lemon rose
already in the wind.
World of promises
in the making
February coming through.



Shell✨🐚

Muted forever.
Links of misplaced zipper sewed together.
I am locked inside my emptiness.
Hollow do I sound.
Watching eyes all around, following you what you do.
Can’t express, feelings of suppression, weighing heavy, making me intensely broken.
Time is limited.
No change before the twelfth hour.
Without freedom time stands still forever.
Only memories,
haunting me.
I’ll be weeping forever.
Tears from deep lacerations.
Like belt stripes on my naked skin.
In my lifetime,
I couldn’t be what I was meant to be.
God have mercy on me and them.




Shell✨🐚

I will walk miles to meet you
If I know you’re walking too
towards me.



Shell ✨🐚

There she was.
In hiding.
Too hurt to face others.
Shattered.
The world around her fell apart.
Darkness.
God where are you?

She felt something inside.
Besides all this ugliness something else was happening.
She felt the need to live, to survive.
The light was within.
A melody in her head.
A song in her heart.
Seeping through the cracks of sorrows.
Reaching her core.

She was praying.
God, give me strength to love and trust again.
This world seems so unfair.
But am I not born for a reason?
A warm glow from within gave her light to see.
She saw handles to hold on to.
To find her way out.
And she bloomed.
Like a violet in the dark growing to the light.


People are like flowers
All in need of light and water
To bloom.



Shell✨🐚

My love for you
is like a pearl inside it’s shell.
Shiny, safe and pure.



Shell✨🐚

The sun wanted to sleep.
Before saying goodbye
blushing Sun painted the sky.
Fragrance of colors filling the blue ceiling
with touches of yellow, orange and pink.
Bluish purple was born and aromatic lavender perfumed the air.
Welcoming the night.


Shell✨🐚

Watching news.
Being speechless and sad.
Humans you are?
Humans without humanity.
How can you go on attacking
right before the promise of ceasefire.
Innocent innocent children.
Abandoned by other humans, human rights.


Monsters planting seeds of hate to be surprised when little monsters are born.



Shell✨🐚

Peaceful caressing dawn.
Golden eye of awakening
sun.
Peeping in early morning’s song,
above horizon’s east.
Reflections in rippleless waters.
Showing the beauty twice.
In silence a bird calls from afar.
Soft breeze of wind’s whisper.
The world so quiet in sunrise clothing.
Overwhelming feeling
when looking at our Creator’s new creation.
A new day.



Shell✨🐚

When I die sweet child of mine will you think of me?

She sat there.
Mother of mothers, alone, isolated.
They left, all colors gone.
She had to stay here now, they decided.
We are too busy they say.
I understand.
Like in the beginning.
You’re born alone and you’ll die alone.
The former with many tears and noise,
the other with one tear in silence.
Had a busy and happy family life, a blessing it was.
I know.
But see, a beautiful creature, watching me.
An angel.
Can you believe it?
I’m talking to an angel dressed like a chicken.
But I’m grateful for everything.
I have a roof over my head
and a bed to sleep in.
I’m healthy enough.
I miss them that’s true.
I will pray for them.
Their time will come too.
We all grow old.
One day they will be me if they’re lucky enough.

Always treat the elderly with kindness and the respect they deserve.
Don’t isolate them.



Shell ✨🐚

In my dreams is that place.
Where we meet, you and me.
When I  arrive,
sweet moon of mine,
grey dream gets colour
and shine.
I put on high heels for you
so we can kiss at our moulin rouge.



Shell✨🐚

Sunflower’s head is down
It’s raining today
No sun to look at and glow.
Sunflower’s tears mixed with the rain
Fell on the ground whispering a name.
Then out of nowhere a rainbow appeared.
Saw sadness on Earth
and called out a name.
Sun appeared like on command.
Sunflower lift up her head and started to shine.
Winked at the ribbon of colors up in the sky.
Yes after the rain, ribbon of candy delivered the Sun.
A promise of light after the dark.
Of better times when things are bad.
Just never forget to
call out His name.



Shell  ✨🐚

Every new beginning is special.
A challenge.
A new relation.
A new home.
A newborn.
A new year.
No one knows what new things bring.
Be kind, do good and pray.
A HAPPY and BLESSED year to all of you.
Always be grateful.
Always say “ thank You “
for the things you have
and the things you don’t have.
Be safe.

Shell ✨🐚

Fluid of the mind
Falling silently
Like salty tiny rivers
over the cheeks.
Little cracks of the heart
Aching…
when listening to that song,
Inhaling the fragrance of night’s Jasmine.

Remembering you.



Shell✨🐚

When
Snow globe moon is here.
Christmas is near.
It’s that special time again.
Cold weather, coziness.
Being together.
Cinnamon scents fill  the air.
Lights everywhere……
Let it come through.
Let it be Christmas in our hearts
too.
Love, don’t hate.



Please stop the wars.


Shell ✨🐚

Child in warmth or cold.
War and homelessness
with Christmas
please no more
We all deserve light.

Children must be
warm and safe
Around the Christmas tree.
No more pain and fear.
Feeling safe.

Cold white winter night
sharing food
open presents
classic Christmas Eve.
That’s how it’s supposed to be.



Shell✨🐚

I hold you in my hands.
Caress your skin.
I can’t wait, to begin
This journey with you.
What does it have for me to bring.
So many mysteries, history,
so much knowledge,
stories untold.
I stay at home and visit the world.
Meet all kinds of people I can’t let go.
A library filled with the world and more that’s out there.
I visit the universe and colour some dreams.
Want to touch the moon and
steal me some stars.
Beautiful book with unspoken words.
Teach me everything, show me the core.
Of what is this living without your wisdom to explore.


Shell✨🐚

While walking the path of life don’t forget to watch the view.



Shell✨🐚

And while she was sleeping the  sleep of angels, he watched her from afar.
When she started dreaming
he lay softly by her side.
She was what he once longed for to hold close by.
Once before the curse of all curses
took over
and changed his being that once was…
Her beauty was in the making
She was his daylight star.
He would like to take her up to the heavens, fly with her to catch her a piece of the sky.
If only she knew that he was her Eden.

He couldn’t wait for night to fall.

She was dreaming that she was flying
On the back of her trusted friend.
Higher and higher he would take her making sounds of excitement
wishing it would never end.
She would laugh, hold on to his majestic wings and threw her head back ,
her hair flying
in the wind.
This was her partner, she felt in her heart. Her trusted love from forever.
As was written in the stars.
Then she would wake up with a smile.
Knowing… he was out there.
Watching, protecting and waiting.

She couldn’t wait for night to fall.



Shell ✨🐚

Rather dance
happy and freely in the rain
than to carry the burden
of an umbrella.




Shell✨🐚

Angels humming quietly
Soft melody of the divine
Song in children’s happy laughter
travel up through clouds and rain
to gates of cherry blossoms sky.
Melody of love and sadness
In the hearts of everyone.
Deeply hidden in baby’s innocence.
Going all life long
Till in old men broken smile.


Shell ✨🐚

I don’t need diamonds
I don’t need wealth
Just pick me a flower
for me to smell
Show me the moon
to caress my eyes
Play me a song
to sing in my heart
Give me your love
to elevate my soul
I’ll be happy
wherever I go.



Shell ✨🐚

The wildflower liked being in the wild.
Flourishing in silent peace while dancing in the wind.
Like a rose in the vineyard.

He watched the rose but
didn’t pluck her.
She didn’t belong to him.

His heart full of love.



Shell ✨🐚

Lay me down on golden song.
To be gently kissed by a silk breeze of cold.
Shivering trees are watching.
Yellow orange lights,  flickering.
Giving a coziness.
Inviting togetherness going into the white.
A warm hug is needed as is a mug of hot cocoa.



Shell✨🐚

Her eyes blinked with butterflies
Deep within…
They were
Fluttering.
Giving her this longing.
She was falling
Higher and higher.
Aching
was the passion
to hold you
In her arms.
To be taken away and
let the butterflies fly.


Shell ✨🐚

Velvety morning rise in the West.
Apricot-skin like, you appear.
While half moon is still here.
You announce the sun
to greet the moon before she goes.
To shine her tender light elsewhere.
Ocean waters change with their interplay.
Peaceful beach morning awaits.




Shell ✨🐚

Being in love with life,
with love.
Love for living things.
Nature, music,
You,
who I haven’t met yet.
Like
a melody I haven’t heard yet.
Warming my heart already,
making me happy.
Just waiting to be born.

And there I was, in a colorful world.
Listening to the song of
nature.
Watching all kinds of animals and all kinds of people together in harmony.
Wondering where all the water was.
Then I recognized you.
You are my mother, my brother
my sister
You are me and I love you
Human being.



Shell ✨🐚

Be,
where there is room
for voiceless songs
like
silk breezes from the wind
Feel
Caressing eyes inviting you.
In silence.
Find solace deep within
when sadness makes you numb.




Shell ✨🐚

When the leaves of fall have fallen 🍂
You see the beauty of the silhouettes.


Shell ✨🐚

Hear the
calming stream of falls falling.
Streaming of breathing lake,
through land of colored leaves.
Feel the cool breeze caress you while
morning light is still asleep.

Terracotta colours shine
in flickering shades of lights
on orange pumpkins everywhere.
Scent of candles still around
Trying to hold on to passed night.
Earthy fragrances everywhere
yes  Autumn's time is here.

Birds already calling day
while sun is still in hiding.
Chirping to young ones waiting,
letting know they’re
on their way.

Sounds of autumn early morning
Promise of a silver song.
Let’s embrace this season’s charm,
time to say Thanks once again.
Having roasted turkey, cinnamon pie and sweet potatoes.
Togetherness and laughter.
Sharing  joy between loved ones
Christmas time is near.



Shell ✨🐚

In early morning dew,
Under velvet see through
veil.
I saw my moon
sleeping like a baby.
Dreaming of a
lazy sun
to get up soon.
To brighten this new day.

Thank You for just another day.




Shell ✨🐚

My Creator is mine and I am His.
I am from Him and myself alone.
All the days of my life,
till dawn meets dawn.
I’m nesting in His love and do not need more.
Till time doesn’t exist anymore.


Shell ✨🐚

You have to fall in love with living first,
with moon and sun and stars.
With all kinds of human beings,
to make this world
overcome all kinds of fears.
To be able to dance.
Dance with you,
dance with you all night long.
All night long under the light of moonshine.
Until the twelfth hour.


Shell   ✨🐚

Looking at the elegance of the tree
I want to freeze time.
Freeze the moment of the movement
with the wind.
Capture every branch,
every twig,
every leaf.🍃
Like it captures me.
Can’t stop looking.



Shell ✨🐚

The moon is dripping all her honey
while newlyweds enjoy sweet nights together.
New beginnings taste  like liquid gold.
May the moon always be.



Shell ✨🐚

Let love be your strength not your weakness.


Shell✨🐚

I see you
You see me.
There will come a time
that
you’ll see
that  that’s enough.
To really see,
and to know,
that it will be
you
I’ll be thinking of
at my last hours….



Shell ✨🐚

Then all the lights went out.
Silence.
I saw all stars above.
Heard the sounds of nature.
A white bird flying in the dark.
Coocoo calling owl, dogs barking.
Baby cry from afar.
I was at peace.
I had the light within .




Shell✨🐚

We all love to love, to be loved
To make love.

Love can be all about passion and chemistry
But there also has to be
peace and quiet
to be everlasting.



Shell ✨🐚

In twilight’s light
another day is passing
Like a little sailboat on open waters.
Sinking sun slowly fading.
Looking through the frame of life I see
different pictures passing.
Seems like yesterday I came through dark waters.
Embracing light of life full
of sunshine full of rain.
Soon the time will come as twilight time is over.
Stepping into night of life
to meet the light of darkness.
Pastel view, soon yesterday’s
memory.
Smelling blooming fragrance and the scent of fresh coffee
while life is growing older.

Yesterdays, yesteryears
Soon only a memory of you.


Shell ✨🐚

A smile is the first invitation to everything.
With a smile many doors and hearts
will open.
Yes, I see you.



Shell ✨🐚

Truth and sadness are always silent.

Mona Lisa , Mona Lisa
Men must have just told you
How beautiful you are.
What all seem to have missed
is the sadness behind the smile.
When you look
throughly and  sincerely
you can see the pain within the eyes.

We all have a little bit of Mona Lisa inside.


Shell ✨🐚

Standing in the shadow of life.
I watch others flourish in warmth of light.
Happy to be part of this wonderful world.
Full of color and sound.
Giving me peace just being.
Enjoying all little things,
miraculous and beautiful.
I’m mourning but still
blooming from gratitude,
living inside of me.
For everything that is and was.


Shell.✨🐚

Being in love with life,
with love.
Love for living things.
Nature, music,
You,
who I haven’t met yet.
Like
a melody I haven’t heard yet.
Warming my heart already,
making me happy.
Just waiting to be born.

And there I was, in a colorful world.
Listening to the song of
nature.
Watching all kinds of animals and all kinds of people together in harmony.
Wondering where all the water was.
Then I recognized you.
You are my mother.



Shell ✨🐚

The bird sat still
For years.
One wing was free.
First moving wildly,
while the other was tied down.
The bird learned through watching.
Fed by the wind.
To survive this flightless life,
still full of light.
Never reaching potential heights.
Now set free he didn’t even know how to fly anymore.
There sits a still bird still.
Watching.
Wondering what it’s like
up there .


Shell ✨🐚

The wildflower liked being in the wild.
Flourishing in silent peace
while dancing in the wind.
